Great stuff! Looks suspiciously like the original Avons and pressures on the front. A bit more pressure will help and the Blockleys will certainly sharpen up the front but great fun all the same.

Thanks for sharing that Mario, the car looked and sounded fantastic! I thought it amusing on the first half of the video that whilst there are other cars on the track the camera can only hear the M3W! All the others sound like electric powered cars.

Splendid - understeer but great spirit and nice lines. Sounds great too. Looked like it was showing almost 6000 rpm at one point from what I could see and sounded like it was on the rev limiter.
Brilliant!

Excellent on board footage. Just like sitting in the back seat!

That is a very tight track Mario! It looks as if you stay in 2nd gear for most of the time?
I wonder if a little negative camber might help out with the oversteer, meaning that when the weight is on the outside wheel, it will be more upright, and therefore present a better tyre profile? Just a thought.
It's good to seeing you using all the revs and all the track, that's what this sort of driving is all about. We need more now!
